2011 Vauxhall Zafira 1.8L Petrol · CT60 GCY

The Vauxhall Zafira presents as roadworthy following a clean pass on 14 October 2025 at 78,784 miles. The maintenance trend is stable with no advisories or defects logged across the three most recent annual tests. The October 2025 pass came six days after a failure on 8 October 2025 at 78,696 miles, yet the failure recorded no defects, indicating a administrative or presentational rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Recorded mileage sits at 78,784 against a 2011 build, an average of roughly 5,252 miles per year. The car covered only 4,055 miles between the September 2023 test at 72,726 miles and the October 2024 test at 74,849 miles, then 3,935 miles to the October 2025 figure. This low annual use suggests extended standing periods, which commonly accelerate rubber perishing and corrosion on idle vehicles despite low drivetrain wear. A prior failure with zero defects on 10 October 2024 at 74,849 miles mirrors the October 2025 pattern, pointing to non-mechanical test anomalies rather than owner neglect of consumables. No advisories for suspension bushes, brake discs, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity appear in the record, so the history shows no recurring mechanical trend requiring corrective action. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of coil springs, subframe corrosion, and brake caliper operation given the car's fifteen years and likely static storage. Confirm the reason for the two zero-defect failures with DVSA, and verify tyre sidewall condition and wiper blades, as low-mileage cars often hide degraded rubber unseen by annual tests.
